It can be hard to tell at times, but Congressman Kelly Armstrong says Congress does actually do things aside from hold hearings about the Mueller investigation and President Donald Trump’s alleged obstruction and collusion.

On this episode of Plain Talk he describes progress on bipartisan legislation to address opioid abuse, but acknowledged that the Democratic majority in his chamber sets an agenda that’s mostly about a vendetta against Trump.

Armstrong also took questions from listeners about trade. He says he has made it clear to the Trump administration he does not support more tariffs on China because of their impact on North Dakota’s economy.
